[Riff A]

B E F# B

My daddy told me, lookin back,

E F#

The best friend you'll have is a railroad track

B E F# B

So when I was 13, I said, I'm rollin' my own

E F# B

And I'm leavin' Missouri and I'm never comin' home

B

And I'm lost

E

And I'm lost

B G#m

I'm lost at the bottom of the world

B E

I'm handcuffed to the bishop and the barbershop liar

B F# B

I'm lost at the bottom of the world.

B E F# B

Satchel Puddin' and Lord God Mose

E F#

Sitting by the fire with a busted nose

B E F# B

That fresh egg yeller is too damn rare

E F# B

But the white part is perfect for slickin' down your hair

B

And I'm lost

E

And I'm lost

B G#m

I'm lost at the bottom of the world

B E

I'm handcuffed to the bishop and the barbershop liar

B F# B

I'm lost at the bottom of the world.

B E F# B

Blackjack Ruby and Nimrod Cain

E F#

The moon's the color of a coffee stain

B E F# B

jesse Frank and Birdy Joe Hoaks

E F#

But who is the king of all these folks?

B

And I'm lost

E

And I'm lost

B G#m

I'm lost at the bottom of the world

B E

I'm handcuffed to the bishop and the barbershop liar

B F# B

I'm lost at the bottom of the world.

[Play riff A]

B E F# B

Well I dined last night with Scarface Ron

E F#

On Telapia fish cakes and fried black swan

B E F# B

Razorweed onion and peacock squirrel

E F#

And I dreamed all night about a beautiful girl

B

And I'm lost

E

And I'm lost

B G#m

I'm lost at the bottom of the world

B E

I'm handcuffed to the bishop and the barbershop liar

B F# B

I'm lost at the bottom of the world.

[Play Riff A and B]

B E F# B

Well God's green hair is where I slept last

E F#

He balanced a diamond on a blade of grass

B E F# B

Now I woke me up with a cardinal bird

E

And when I wanna talk

F#

He hangs on every word

B

And I'm lost

E

And I'm lost

B G#m

I'm lost at the bottom of the world

B E

I'm handcuffed to the bishop and the barbershop liar

B F# B

I'm lost at the bottom of the world.

[Play riff A 2x + fadeout]
